The Battle of Stok, one of many skirmishes of the January Uprising, took place in the night of May 4/5, 1863, near the village of Stok, which at that time belonged to Russian-controlled Congress Poland. A Polish insurgent party under Ignacy Mystkowski ambushed here a detachment of the Imperial Russian Army. The battle is regarded as one of the biggest Polish victories of the uprising.
